Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
  • An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.

  • While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.

  • Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.

  • President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.

Quick Glance: Trump campaign expects $50 million haul at fundraiser
  • Former President Trump is expected to rake in approximately $50 million at a fundraising event in Palm Beach, Florida, on Saturday night, under the leadership of hedge fund billionaire John Paulson.

Tropicana Las Vegas Closing Tuesday to Make Way for Baseball Stadium
Quick Glance: Tropicana's Closure for New Baseball Stadium
  • The 67-year-old Tropicana will close on Tuesday to make way for a new baseball stadium designated for the Major League Baseball team the A's.

  • Originally considered luxurious, the Tropicana lost its appeal over the years and was finally sold to Bally's for $308 million to make room for the future baseball stadium.

  • Demolition is scheduled for October after MLB owners approved the A's move to Las Vegas in November of last year. The team is expected to arrive in Las Vegas in 2028.

  • The design for the new $1.5 billion baseball stadium on the Tropicana site was recently unveiled, showcasing a futuristic look with huge white sails inspired by traditional baseball pennants.
